Though nothing has been officially
announced in regard to Prince Bis
marck's long interview with the
Car, it is an open secret in diplomIait5ic
urged the Car to assist in putting an end
to Russia's economic war with Germany.
Count Schouvaloff, the Russian Ambassa-
dor, had prepared the Car for Prince Bis
marcks line of argument, at the same time
supporting the policy of Cancellation by
advising acquiescence in the Chancellor's
suggestions. As these were directly hos
tile TO M. De Glers the Car countermanded
the arrangements for the presence of
NJ. De Giers. If Prince Bismarck
has succeeded in impressiDg the Car
with the fact that the incessant attac ks
on German commerce and the prosecutions
of German traders in Russia must be
stopped before there can be a renewal OF
the entente cordiale between the two
countries, the return of the Car to st.
Petersburg will be signalized by a recon
struction of the ministry. Prince Bis
marck is understood to have spoken
earnestly and frankly with the Gar, not
mincing matters, but stating plainly what
personal obstacles existed within the Rus
sian government and operated against the
restoration of amicable relations.
II the conditions proposed by Prince
Bismark be fulfilled, Finance Minister Wish
nigrsdski, who was a fervent follower and
friend of M. Katkof. will be dismissed;
Count Tolstoi will be compelled to give up
the Ministry of the Interior. and NJ. Pobs-
idonostzeff procurator of the synod and
intimate adviser of the Car, will have to
cease his open hostility to Germany, and
bis ostentatious encouragement of French
revar chists. NJ. De Giers is less dangerous
to the Bismarckian policy than are thess
three. The Gar is also ready to throw over
importance Of his Prime Minister in
dealing with Bulgaria, and with
his failure to check the central European
alliance. In conversation, while at Free
dersborg, the Gar freely expressed the
opinion that M. De Giers was getting too
old and wants q rest. Prince Bismarck
would gain the whole diplomatic battle IL
Count Schouvalof should succeed NJ. De
Giers, but an official forecast makes NJ.
Nelidof, the Russian Ambassador at Con-
siantinople, the Cars choice, ard indi-
Gates that Count Scbouvaloff will be trans
ferred to Turkey, his post at Berlin being
taken by Baron Mohrenheim. Whatever
approachment between Russia and Ger
many is effected, it will remain without
IL fiuence on Russia selections toward the
triple alliance.
TALK OF THE PRESS.
An inspired article in the Pesther Lloyd
declares that Russia cannot join the triple
alliance, which agreement remains un.
cbangeable till its expiration in 1891. Any
OF the powers can effect an approchement
with it, but none can modify Its original
character.
Official circles in Berlin do not seem
san guine that the Gar will be able to
sweep the German ophobists from his
IL - D. Ct I.
tired in Russia against the Germans is so
intense that even the autoorat must 90
softly in modifying his policy. But unless
the Car influences q marked change the
existing strained relations will result ere
long in an open rupture.
The Cologne Gazette concludes bitter
anti-Russian article as follows: THE Rus
slams may rest assured that no further at
tempt will be made to draw Russia to Ger
many's side. The policy of Germany will
henceforth be devoted to Strengthening
her relations with powers upon whom she
can rely with certainty"
The North German Gazette tonight de-
| mics that Prince Bismarck regards the dis
missal of Finance Minister Vischnigradski
| and the partisans of the Revanche move
ment as indispensable conditions of the
| renewal of friendly relations. The paper
| denies also that the internal arrangements
| of Russia can ever become subject to an
| understanding between Russia and Ger
/ many or Austria, but these deuials are
/ taken as designed to soothe Russian jeal-
| ousies which are certain to be aroused to a
| furious pitch If the people become con-
| WINGED that the Gar has reformed the
Government in consequence of the prompt
/ ings of Prince Bismarck.
The Cologne Gazette gives prominence
/ to statement which, it is asserted, is
l authorized, that large bodies OF Russian
1 troops, with field guns and immense
/ quantities of munitions, are arriving on
| the German frontier between Rowno aud
\ Winnitza. The increase in railway traffic
for military service is so great that it has
l cansed the suspension OF the erdinsry
| traffic on the Kieff and Kovno line for
l several days.
The Moscow Gazstte does not cease its
attacks on the alliance. The latest article
| declares that the so-called League of
Peace has really an aggressive character.
All indications portend that the inter
view between the Gear and Emperor Will
liam will not much improve the relations
between Germany and Russia.
PRINCE WILLIAMS POSITION.
The important announcement is made
tonight that owing to the illness of the
| Crown Prince, Prince William will, by
command of the Emperor, represent his
father at all future state ceremonies

his arrival has held daily conferences
with Prince William, who visited the
Chancellor within an hour of his reaching
Berlin on Tuesday night. The speech
from the throne at the opening of the
Reichstsg on Thursday will definitely al
lude to the position of Prince William.
The official circle is especially graft.
fed by the Princes recognition, and
all Germany approves a step which will
further consolidate the position of Bis
marck as leader of German destinies.
Prince William does not swerve from his
admiration for Prince Bismarck. He is
[ devoted to.the Chancellor stheories Of good
Government and will implicitly submit
to his guidance. Prince Williams brus-
que. military manner and his occasional
displays of an overbearing temper operate
against his acquiring popular affec-
ton like his father, the Crown
Prince, who is pleasant to every.
body and is slow to anger. Any intellect.
ual power Prince William possesses has
been bestowed upon practical studies of
war tactics and the minutest details OF
army organization. He IL credited with
| the possession of abundant common sense,
and will be willing to accept the advice OF
Prince Bismarck or any other competent
minister in questions of higher policy.
